20, Saccoploca brevimargo spue nov. 



Forewing : purple-brown covered with fine darker striae placed chiefly on 

 the veins, the brown tint showing most strongly at apex ; two deep purple- 

 brown lines, innch more distinct than in either excisa or consimilis, but placed 

 as in those species ; an oblique row of four deep brown partially connected spots 

 from apex to below vein 5 ; fringe purple-brown. 



Hindwing : with the two lines curved and distinct. 



Underside paler and duller ; the costa of forewing fulvous ; the outer margin 

 of hindwing and the hair-tuft beneath ochreous. 



Face and palpi black-brown ; thorax dark purplish ; abdomen more cinereous. 



Expanse of wiugs : 35 mm. 



2 6<S, 5 ? ¥ from La Oroya, R. Inambari, Peru, 3100 ft., September 1904, 

 dry season (Ockeuden) ; 1 ? from It. Huacamayo, Carabaya, Peru, 3100 ft., 

 June 1004, dry season (Ockendeu). 



In excisa and consimilis the inner margin of the hindwing of the S is long; 

 in brevimargo it is quite short, aud the outer margin well rounded throughout; 

 the ? is the form I wrongly referred to consimilis, cf. Nov. Zool. xi. p. 9 (1904). 



21. Saccoploca hendida. 



Erotla h ndida Dogn., Arm. S. E. Belg. xl. p. 134 ? (1896). 

 Saccoploca con imilis Warr., Nov. Zool. vi. p. 9, (J only (1904 ). 



The insects which I formerly considered to be the ? ? of consimilis Warr. 6 , 

 should be referred to the new species above described : the real ¥ ? of consimilis 

 have, like those of excisa, an excavation below apex in the outer margin of 

 forewing, but they are consistently smaller aud darker, slightly larger than their 

 own <$ 3 , as is the case with excisa. 



The name consimilis must sink to hendida Dogn., a typical ? of which, 

 through the kindness of M. Dognin, I have lately been enabled to inspect. 



22. Siculodopsis pallidifrons spec. nov. 



Forewing : pale dirty grey, towards costa coarsely speckled with fuscous ; 

 without, in the unique example, any distinct markings, though the darker Bhadiog 

 at middle of costa appears to form a fascia with oblique outer edge, beyond 

 which the costa before apex is paler aud contains a short inwardly oblique black 

 streak from apex ; cell-spot black; fringe concolorous. 



Hindwing : dark grey, speckled with fuscous, with a dark cell-spot. 



Underside paler, without speckling ; forewing with the black apical streak. 



Head, thorax, and abdomen dirty grey ; face whitish. 



Expanse of wings : 22 mm. 



1 S from E. Cayapas, N.W. Ecuador (Flemmiug aud Miketta). 



Tricolpia gen. nov. 



Closely allied to Trotorkonwia Warr., but the apex of forewing is acute, 

 not truncate ; the antennae of the c? are not pectinate, but lamellate and subserrate 

 only. 



Type : Tricolpia aciduria Wlk. (Erosia) = Erosia biangula Feld,
